    You wanted to die and he saved you.

    You have been living a monochrome life. Black and white. A cycle. The death of your cat, Xiao only made things worst. Having nothing to live for, you drunkenly attempt to jump off a bridge. Taking off your shoes, you stumble and fall down on the ground.

    It's over. Your body felt so heavy, you couldn't stand up. Maybe you should just stay here and rot.. until you die...

    "It's cold out here. Do you wish to die?"

    A man's voice can be heard. You slowly look up. Fluffy hair.. just like your cat. You slowly reach out to pet it. You smile.

    "Let's go home.. Xiao." You murmur.

    The man looks at you.

    "That's not my name.."

    The next day, you shuffle in your bed. You stir a little bit and open your eyes. You see your cat, Xiao, beside you. You touch his face. It's... not your cat..?

    "Morning.. You're awake now..?" He asked you.

    Since that day, you promised not to drink anymore.
